Beat Salad 11

You can probably tell from those notches up the sides: it started from the same source as "Little Banana 9," but then it took off in a different direction. Enjoy! Shown smaller than the original completed size of 1129 X 1300 pixels. [Minor edits made 12/17/23.]

Magic Cap 3

The area at the bottom was once a string of pearls in an old photo of a Hollywood starlet. Then I saw the mushrooms "grow" from the many filters I layered on (along with the bouquet) and used a dry brush and pencil to "carve them out." :D Shown smaller than the original completed size of 3540 X 2625 pixels.

It's great when working on a picture teaches you something new. I learned that you can use fruitcake to decorate with, even if you'd never want to eat it. Shown smaller than the original completed size of 2010 X 1635 pixels.

Pigeons would've been better, but I didn't have any good shots of them. I wonder if there's still anyone alive in this town who'd repair a digital camera for me. Shown smaller than the original completed size of 2403 X 3500 pixels. See one original source here .

Angel Pie 10

Hello again! I'm sorry I've been gone for weeks. First, my tired old laptop perished. So I had to replace it. Then, I accidentally locked myself out of this account! But the ipernity mods got me through that. So now I'm back. I missed you! Anyway... Shown smaller than the original completed size of 4800 X 2764 pixels. See one original source here .

Little Banana 6

19 Oct 2019 9 6 318
So, this ended up featuring all the things which go into that definitive American dessert: banana pudding. To be honest, I'm not all that fond of it, but my husband is. Also, I really wasn't sure about this layout, but I do really love those peaceful blue brushstrokes. Just think of me as a 20th-rate Chagall. :D Shown smaller than the original completed size of 5100 X 3000 pixels. See one original source here .

I was in Astoria, Oregon a couple of weeks ago for the Wine & Seafood Festival. Perfect weather, a cozy room, all the perks. The treats are long gone, but the memories live on. :) Shown smaller than the original completed size of 3000 X 1950 pixels. See one original source here .
